I'm Back!

Happy Monday!

Okay, I know what you are all waiting for:

Yes, my weight loss journey is almost over. I am about 85lbs down and am learning how to accept my new body. In my after pic I am wearing the sweater that I wore during my DVD taping. Please ignore the hair. ;)

I have recently been getting back to art and it has been very therapeutic. This time of year has always been hard for me mentally, and creating again is helping me get back to "normal".

One of my recent projects is this mini file folder book inspired by the wonderful Inkwell .

I have been recently obsessed with mini books!! More coming soon!

I have also uploaded a few videos over on Youtube, including a new tutorial:

It's great to be back. Thanks to all my friends for sticking with me during this break. Can't wait to share more... I've even been drawing!

Hi Paula, I became a follower of your blog after your last post and it's great to see you back creating and posting again . Congrats on your wait loss, you have done really well. I am looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Congratulations on the weight loss! And good for you for deciding to make the decision to concentrate on you! I am so happy that you are getting healthy and are starting to feel the need to create again. That is a good sign. Stay well.

She's baaaaaack! And congrats on the weight loss. Your body thanks you! I just hit my weight loss goal today of all things! I have lost 17 pounds over the past 5 months, doing a 1500 calorie a day eating plan. Regular food, just less. Somebody said the secret to losing weight is 90% less calories intake and 10% exercise. I have to agree.

Congrats on your weight loss...you look great! Thanx as always for sharing your gorgeous creations, the tutorial and for sharing about you weight loss...all are very inspirational. Great to see you back and Love your creations! :)

It is so awesome you stuck to your plan and met the goal you set for yourself! What a great accomplishment. I started following you on YouTube a few months before your weight loss journey. Watching you makes me think maybe I can do it too.... ? I love your art and your positive videos for art journaling. I love how you always say "just play" :-). Love the mini file folder! Thanks for being an inspiration!
